Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Impersonation
Targeted brand: aptos (and: arbitrum, avalanche, base, blast, ethereum)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      4/93 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Bfore.Ai PreCrime, CyRadar, ESET
Public blocklists: listed on 7 independent blocklists

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      185.26.120.99 (RU, Saint Petersburg)

## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     R11
Status:     INVALID chain

## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Status: CLOSED — no report required.
This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either
the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the
operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file
for audit but no formal notice was sent.

## TIMELINE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)

Last verified:     2026-04-22 01:41:12 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-04-22 00:26:28 UTC

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-03 15:57:13 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies dexscreeners.app as a medium-risk phishing domain designed to deceive users and harvest sensitive information. Classified under generic phishing, this domain poses a tangible threat to users seeking legitimate services related to decentralized finance screening.

The domain dexscreeners.app was created on February 21, 2026, and is presently offline. It has been flagged on seven prominent security blocklists, indicating widespread recognition of its malicious intent. Despite its registration through a 'Dead domain' provider—a tactic often used by threat actors to obfuscate ownership—the domain was detected by VirusTotal, with 4 out of 95 security vendors marking it as suspicious. These indicators suggest a coordinated effort to exploit users before the domain was taken offline.

Currently inactive, dexscreeners.app no longer poses an immediate threat; however, users should remain vigilant for potential redirects or similar phishing campaigns leveraging related or newly registered domains. It is recommended to maintain updated security software, rely on trusted sources, and avoid clicking on unsolicited links referencing this or similar suspicious domains. PhishDestroy continues to monitor such threats to provide timely warnings and protect the community.

## SCORING METHODOLOGY
----------------------------------------------------------------
Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates:
  - VirusTotal positive ratio
  - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus,
    CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB)
  - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor)
  - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.)
  - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing
  - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts
  - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording)
  - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures)
  - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...)
  - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal)
  - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record)
  - Human researcher sign-off (volunteer takedown team)

A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does
NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their
first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite
score and the individual indicators above, not just VT.
